Hi Elizabeth! Welcome to planDisney.
Oh Boy! You are just days away from your immersive vacation at
Walt Disney World Resort. There is so much excitement over at
Magic Kingdom Park with the opening of
TRON Lightcycle / RUN Presented by Enterprise® and the return of the nighttime spectacular
Happily Ever After.
As both Food Scientist and Aunt to nephews with serious food allergies, I am always comforted by the lengths Walt Disney World Resort goes to assist those with food allergies. I am thrilled to read you have contacted the
Special Diets Team. You should be hearing back from a team member very soon. Flaxseed is indeed a unique allergy, however, I am confident Disney will do everything possible to ensure safe dining experiences. In addition, my advice is to always announce to the server your allergies. Counter service and table service locations will have allergy binders you can read through to verify a safe option. Chefs will often come out personally to talk to you about your specific allergies.
Also note, you are free to bring food into the parks. There is nothing like having a family picnic in the hub at Magic Kingdom Park. Please remember, if carrying a cooler, loose or dry ice is not permitted. Cooler packs are the way to go. Read over the
park rules to make sure your cooler is the right size and you are not bringing prohibited items like glass containers.
Keeping it Magical,
Cindy
